Having previously owned the 30.2 Annies and the hl5 Annies I can tell you that the XD does not sound the same.
I’ve now got a pair of 30.2XDs which I prefer to either of the two. Thats not to say they were not brilliant speakers. It’s just the XD takes the performance a little further
30.2 XD looses the slight mid bass hump of the 30.2 and gives a more extended treble. The treble is really stunning compared to any other speaker I’ve heard so far. Nothing touches it including the Dynaudios I’ve heard, which also offer great treble. It’s a fast, lusciously revealing yet melodious speaker. Absolute gem IMO.
Instead of speculating I would highly recommend you guys audition this speaker.
